Thanks for all the comments on the car. This car is for sale and will probably end up on Ebay and autotrader within the next week or so.
Q&A:
No, a bodyshop in Charlotte painted it.
Thanks, ManPower collision in Charlotte. The painter does A LOT of custom work for shows.
I painted the calipers myself. I just used some hi-temp red engine paint from Advanced auto. After the paint dried, I went back over the Mazda nameplate with a dremel-mounted wire brush wheel and polished it off.
Yep, the bodyshop painted it Porsche red. I saw the silver one in the Yamaguchi book and thought it would be neat since my car does have red interior.
That is a nice color but I am very partial to the Silverstone

why sell after you just painted? Would have made more sense to sell before hand. Unless of course you ran into some troubles afterwards, then i understand. Good luck with the sale regardless.
